Bombadil, you are the best among our happy, lovable and gentle sibs, and I want very much to wish you a wonderfully fine time on your day little brother (remember I Ďave five months on ya). And may you have a very goodly more of them in the bargain.

Cheers!

(P.S. - Pip-pep, Scooter and Lovie send their regards to Arwen and Aragorn)

There it is: dwarves are not heroes, but calculating folk with a great idea of the value of money; some are tricky and treacherous and pretty bad lots; some are not, but are decent enough people like Thorin and Company, if you don't expect too much.
